Experience the authentic, deep-water majesty of Mount Desert Island’s 'quiet side' with our Southwest Harbor 3D Wood Coastal Map. As the largest municipality on the southwestern shore, this traditional relief art meticulously captures the strategic entrance to Somes Sound and the sheltered basins that have hosted a world-class shipbuilding industry for over a century. This piece renders the harbor’s complex seafaring topography, from the historic Beal’s Lobster Pier and the prestigious docks of Hinckley Yachts to the working waterfront of Manset. From the distant silhouette of Bear Island Light guarding the sound to the 175-foot glacial depths of Somes Sound nearby, this map brings the sophisticated, understated spirit of MDI’s premiere maritime village into your home with masterful 3D detail.
